Over a glass of Champagne at the Moët Lounge in the Tents on Saturday, we caught up with British designer Alice Temperley just after her runway show. She was relieved and delighted, but revealed that the road to Bryant Park was paved with some extremely sticky flagstones. “Two weeks ago somebody stole £25,000 worth of Christian Louboutin shoes for the show,” she said.
